Which “non-techy people” are we talking about here?
Nowadays some people only use smartphones or maybe tablets, and they might not know that. But most non-techy desktop users still use Windows and they certainly ought to know the default browser (and its search engine) on their OS, I would think.
I’m talking about people on Windows desktops. They don’t know what Windows is, they confuse Office with Windows all the time, they go online through the “internet symbol” which is their default browser that they don’t know the name of. Google is their default search engine and they’ve never seen any other search engine.
If Google is their default search engine, they must at least be tech-savvy enough to have changed the search engine in Edge, or installed another browser (probably Chrome).

No they complained to enough people around them that “the internet doesn’t work” until someone did it for them
They might know the icon; they probably don’t know its name tho.
And in my experience, non-tech people use the default browser and its default search engine. If they hate it, they certainly don’t show it.
For many non-techy people it’s probably simply the internet button.
